Chapter 767: Retreat in Order to Advance
Jun Shiyan’s brows furrowed even more tightly. He did not have to think to know what was going on. Huo Ci must have been annoyed when he got home again. He hummed in understanding. “I’ll call you later.”
After Ling Sheng finished speaking, she hung up straight away and looked at her father seriously. “It should be fine now, right!”
Happy now?
Satisfied?
How childish!
Huo Ci let out a cold snort and pointed at her angrily. “If you dare lie to me, I’ll kill that sc.u.mbag Old Jun. Do you believe me?!”
Ling Sheng nodded seriously. I believe you. I really believe you… Not. Who would believe you? If you could kill him, you would have done it long ago.
The Lunar New Year was coming soon, so she could not be bothered to quarrel with him either. Since Xiaoqi was sick too, she was not in the mood to talk back. She would coax him and make him leave quickly.
How could Huo Ci not know that she was just patronizing him? However, her att.i.tude was good, and she did whatever he said. She was being very obedient.
However, he did not know how to express the stomach full of vulgarities that he had been holding back. She listened to everything he said. She made the call and broke up with that guy like he had ordered her to. Regardless of whether it was real or not, she had listened to him. What else did he want?
He was p.i.s.sed about both problems, and his chests felt like it was about to explode. TheyHe pointed at her forcefully before turning to leave!
F*ck!
He was so mad!
This brat was getting better at retreating in order to advance! Look at how capable she was!
If she was so capable, she should not have gone to find Jun Shiyan. If she dared to look for him again, he would skin her alive!
“Father, help me close the door.” Ling Sheng did not want to get out of bed. Her son was still in her embrace, so she was afraid of waking the child up. She called out softly and pressed her palms together to plead with him.
“Why? You want to call Third Master Jun? Are you afraid that I’ll hear you?” Huo Ci stopped in his tracks, his lips curling into a cold smile. How naive she was to think of closing the door. “If you dare close the door today, I’ll kill him!”
Ling Sheng lowered her small head pitifully, and her soft voice was even a little hoa.r.s.e. “But it’s cold.”
Huo Ci gritted his teeth and glared at her ferociously. He grinded his molar teeth and warned her. “The central heating is working well at home. Why are you cold? Don’t close the door!”
In the end, Ling Sheng did not dare close the door. Her father had gotten angry outside, so when he got home, she became his punching bag. How pitiful!
When Jun Shiyan called, Ling Sheng picked up the call as soon as it vibrated. She lay under the blanket, not daring to breathe loudly. Perhaps her father was listening in the corner outside!
Huo Ci really did listen for a while but did not notice any abnormal actions from her. Then, he went to take a shower and sleep in peace. Why should he be angry? His body was the one that would suffer if he got angry too often.
He wasn’t angry!
He mustn’t be angry!
When Jun Shiyan spoke, Ling Sheng could only hum softly in reply. Upon hearing him say that he would visit her at home during the New Year, she finally whispered, “I can’t handle my father and grandpa!”
Jun Shiyan’s magnetic voice carried a smile. “Don’t worry, leave it to me. I’ll take care of your grandpa and father.”
Ling Sheng thought, he just forced me to break up with you. What kind of living G.o.d are you? How can you deal with them? Before she could speak, she heard her father cough at the door. She only let out a small hum as she listened to the footsteps getting closer. “I’m hanging up!”
The moment Huo Ci entered, Ling Sheng hid her phone under her pillow and pretended to be asleep.
He took a look from the entrance. The brat was not moving. She was really quite obedient. He closed the door in pa.s.sing.
Upon seeing the door close, Ling Sheng’s lips curled up slightly. Actually, other than having a bad temper and a nasty mouth, her father still had a tiny bit of virtue.
